In contrast, <scene name='82/824003/Amylose_v/2'>amylose V</scene> occurs as a single helix as shown in the figure (same structure shown as <scene name='82/824003/Amylose_v/3'>cartoon</scene>). A more irregular conformation of a cyclic amylose occurs is found in complex with a protein in the structure [[5jiw]]. | <scene name='82/824003/Amylose_a/3'>Amylose A</scene> and B occur as parallel double-helices of glucose chains, with 6 glucose units per turn.
